It doesn't matter. Its like yelling fire in a theater to try and get a good seat. Its not something joked about - its shameful. She'll likely pay the price - and should.
Perhaps they should. We wouldn't have any politicians left if that were the case though. :lol:

Perhaps in la la land but here... the thread is about this woman sending out a twitter asking "Where's an assassin when you need one." I thought you at least would know what the thread was about but I was apparently mistaken.
Right? But that just speaks to the level the system has fallen more than anything else, sadly.
Someone saying they're going to put Uncle "Foot in Mouth" Biden in charge.... now THAT is a threat.
I know the constitution doesn't call for governance by threat of murder.given your silly comments about "fetishists" you really aren't in a position to be lecturing me on definitions or what the constitution says
:lamo Well, now we know that we should just ignore you and not take anything you say seriously at all.
So if you're unknown you can say anything without fear of reprisal nor is what you said to be taken seriously for condemnations or calls to action which may otherwise be illegal. But if you are known, then the threats carry more weight and your speech is restricted? Interesting argument.
That's true. Perhaps we should be able to beat them when they do a piss poor job and waste our money and treat us as if we work for them rather than the other way around? Sounds like a plan to me! :mrgreen:
After reading the link.... It appears the title is misleading.
I cannot recall one sitting President who hasn't been the recipient of that type of "smart azzed" remark. Admittedly BAD Humor, as always.
Political BS hoopla. More insidious politic-ing and again "much ado over nothing"
Should a truly serious threat incident occur, Many, most gun owners would be first in a protective perimeter line around the pres...standing guard... saying.. "NO, we don't do things that way in the U.S.A. The Secret Service could stand down, grab some coffee, and watch the :hitsfan:
Like him or not, he's the goddam President until the next election.
We have large problems to be considered and promotion of this type of idiotic distraction is aggravating.

Of course I'm sick...
Alright, done with this thread.
Founder Of ‘Moms With Guns’ Asks For Someone To Kill Obama (IMAGE)
And who was this woman wanting someone to kill, Obama or Bush?
Maybe we should beat citizens (or noncitizens whatever the case may be) who defend crooked politicans too?Throw them in jail after we beat them, for LIFE.
People on the right sure do like their jokes about inflicting violence based on politics.
You know the answer to that. If I was stupid enough to put my name in this forum I would force myself to use extreme caution when typing.
Anonymity means everything on the internet. As for the NSA? ehh whatever let em have all the things they want, anonymity won't change that.
I simply lie with everything when a sign-in asks for your name, age, etc.
A tip for you: The title of a thread does not predict nor represent the direction of the actual discussion of that thread. The twitter and the this woman is the purpose of the thread...not Obama or Bush.
Get it yet? I mean, I can't lower the bar beyond ducks and bunnies level here.
Recently, the popular social networking site Facebook had a poll asking whether President Obama should be assassinated. The responses were: yes, no, maybe, and if he cuts my health care. Over 700 people answered the survey before officials at Facebook removed it from the Web site. It was removed at the urging of the US Secret Service, which investigated the matter, just as it investigates all threats against the President.
You may not know it, but merely threatening to kill or hurt the President is a federal crime. It doesn't matter if the person actually means it or if the threat is made on paper, the telephone, or over the Internet, like the Facebook poll.
The President isn't the only one protected from cyber threats. You are, too.
Federal and State Laws
A federal law makes it a crime to threaten to hurt someone else if the threat is made through "interstate commerce." Generally, that covers any threat sent through the US Postal Service, e-mail, or otherwise over the Internet. Many states have similar laws. A person convicted of committing this crime may be fined, sent to jail, or both.
As you can see, cyber threats are serious business.
Don't Do It
Think carefully before posting something on a Web site or blog and before sending that e-mail when you're angry or upset. Understand that you may be breaking federal or state laws, and the consequences may be severe.
The Secret Service's investigation of the Facebook poll ended happily for some, and unhappily for others. The Secret Service tracked down the person who created the poll - a juvenile. His or her name, age, and address were not disclosed by the Secret Service. Even though it could, the Service isn't pressing criminal charges because agents determined that the kid didn't have any real intention of hurting the President. The child made a "mistake," according to one agent.

Given the content of this exchange we may have the basis for a conspiracy to assassinate here.Watts tagged the FBI in her tweet and also sent the message along to the U.S. Secret Service, as well.

Perkins seems to have deleted her account, but the comments seen at the bottom of the screengrab are all by real people suggesting that the photo is legitimate. Casey Hindman, the man who suggests he may know where to get into contact with a hitman, is a member of the “Moms With Guns” Facebook page. Cathy Bullock Lee, the woman who is “amazed it hasn’t happened yet,” is a member of the group “I support Open Carry in Texas” as well as various Tea Party and sovereign citizen fan pages.
